“The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction not a destination.”

Carl Rogers

Philosophy 

Each day I encounter individuals of all walks of life; young, old, big, small, male, female....  all with a common plight, they are wanting to relieve themselves of their suffering. This suffering takes shape in different ways for different people; depression, anxiety, substance use, eating disorders, relationship problems, psychosis, fears and phobias, and the list goes on.

Although the experience of these is often crippling and all-consuming, the idea that any one would think that they are defective or broken because of this, makes my heart shatter into a thousand pieces. I focus much of my therapy on de-pathologising my client’s concerns. To try instil a sense of hope and meaning so that they can experience a life that is fulfilling and enriched. So that they can understand their suffering, not fear it, find meaning in it, learn to cope with it and move forward.
